Long story short, I got scammed. I filed with paypal and escalated. The next day I see I have a refund from the seller but it's ''pending'' and still is as of right now.
Why would a refund be pending through paypal? Wouldn't it be instant?? I'm so nervous I won't get my money back. This was a gift for my daughter for Christmas so I really need the money back ASAP to purchase her something else.

they may have spent the money in their PP already so it needs to clear from their bank account? thats my best guess

That's my guess too. I issued a partial refund once because I was super late getting something out but I had spent most of what was in pp. PP had to take out $1-2 from my bank to cover the partial and it took a couple of days for it to go through.

I paid using paypal but with my credit card. I just have a feeling this refund won't go through....there are multiple other mamas that got scammed by her as well and I have a feeling the money won't clear her account. I wonder if my credit card would protect me at all? I NEED this money back.

I believe your credit card would protect you from this. Give them a call.

On eBay and had my
Refund as "pending " and then another email
From PayPal stating it didnt clear and that they would retry in a few days . Didn't clear AGAIN but PayPal did cover me
